Former President Donald Trump issued a statement after reports and claims indicated he had dinner last week with rapper Kanye West at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida amid a chorus of negative media coverage.

“So I help a seriously troubled man, who just happens to be black, Ye (Kanye West), who has been decimated in his business and virtually everything else, and who has always been good to me, by allowing his request for a meeting at Mar-a-Lago, alone, so that I can give him very much needed ‘advice,’” Trump wrote on Saturday via his Truth Social platform.
